I’m not sure there area any men or women very deserving of it nowadays. Reagan, maybe, but the country would NEVER agree on it.
We are definitely, and sadly, far too divided now to achieve or build anything of such iconic greatness.
Perhaps one day this country will regain its spirtual footing, — but I feel we’re going to have to hit rock bottom before it happens — or kick out some of these rabble rousers that hate America and its way of life.
I feel, most of all, this country has become on that loves pleasure and money more than God and doing His will. It’s all about power and money, power and money.
Just some rambling thoughts.
I think the Indians would object, the Black Hills are undoubtedly sacred ground. That doesn’t mean it couldn’t be built, only that it would have to be part of a casino, and a casino is where you see your wealth disappears. So whose face should be on a place where the the money disappears?
